[Bug 1362584] Re: [HP 255 G1 Notebook PC] Synaptics Touchpad not Working after upgrade from 12.04.1 LTS to 14.04.1 LTS

 

Have downloaded Ubuntu 14.04 LTS installation DVD and booted from this
as "Live".  Two boot options  in BIOS relating to this - boot in UEFI
mode and boot in non UEFI.  Booted in non UEFI mode as had seen mention
that someone had cured similar issue by installing in UEFI mode so
seemed a worthwhile exercise.  Touchpad worked fine in non UEFI mode.
Not sure what this means as have been out of mainstream IT loop for a
few years now.  Last systems I supported were XP based so not sure what
UEFI is all about.

Title:
  [HP 255 G1 Notebook PC] Synaptics Touchpad not Working after upgrade
  from 12.04.1 LTS to 14.04.1 LTS

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There are several similar problems on the forums but seem to be either unanswered or marked as solved with no solution. Have only just bought this laptop and one of it's uses will be to play programs recorded on mythtv from our PVR when away from home, hence reason for upgrading to same release.
  Have looked at Kernel Debugging Wiki and not sure what is relevant for this issue.
